Hidden Collard, Crouching Carrot

Last weekend Hubby wanted to make a smoothie, but we had a hodge podge of fruit and veggies in the fridge. He pulled out some ginger, carrot, lemon, blueberries, collard greens, spinach and frozen strawberries. After juicing the carrots and some ginger, he blended everything together and as you can see, it doesn’t look very yummy. He and I were very afraid to taste it, but Miss C was yipping and babbling, reaching for the drink trying to taste it, so we gave her some. And some more, and some more, until she’d had two servings. She was the inspiration we needed to try our own breakfast smoothie. If baby girl loved it, surely it couldn’t taste that bad. With cautious lips, we sipped the orange concoction and were pleasantly surprised! Of course, the drink needed a clever name, so Hubby coined it the “Hidden Collard, Crouching Carrot.”
